I was reading through the archives of a comic called Intensity Man recently, and one thing that another character told the namesake was interesting:  "We are unique, posessed of a special power which provides a wide variety of great powers.  One thing is consistent, though:  Our hair is always thick and luxurious.  Hair is highly resistant to chemicals and heat, it weakens as we do, and you might say that our heads grow hair.  Do you perhaps have some sort of motto that you would like to follow while fighting crime?"  Intensity Man said, "Yes, I do:  I shall protect the weak and act to save all who are in danger.
Life has progressed a great deal, and as it did, extinction was a constant.  Once, life was naught but single-celled creatures, too simplistic to develop. An extinction forced them to become multi-cellular creatures, eventually developing into fish.  Fish had flippers, and were unable to use the tools necessary for true development.  They were culled once again, and in order to survive, they had to develop into dinosaurs.  Dinosaurs had the potential to develop, but they grew too large and powerful, and fought with each other.  They were killed, and replaced by smaller creatures called mammals.  Mammals developed into humans, and humans advanced, but they became too violent and disparate.  Mammals were subject to extinction, and humans were forced to band together and work to survive.

I enjoy the game the Last Express, which I played recently and would recommend to anyone who likes classic  adventure games.

What time is this?

A jewel's bird fights the horde.  Grady and his grandfather are together; Mr. Grady is shown his life, a surreal trip from the World Wars to the present, ending at the table of his grandson.

Your existence is your reality

We, especially video game players, must understand the importance of the suspension of disbelief. We have a world produced from the mind, and eight bits on the n---- are best. Media have evolved, and the ones who have not the handiwork to prove themselves worthy shall die with the primitives. Images are as valuable as words, and the most unappreciated are often the most precious. Marry idea to work, or yourself to a breeding partner, but remember that in the universe there are star systems of millions, and though each can produce new systems, it can only travel perhaps a hundred light-years before they fade.
Greetings, futile dust mites in the scheme of existence.
